lol... nice try. So espn calling a poll/rank Week 1 after the first full week is fine. That means when I do the next poll after week 1 games, I can call it week 1 like ESPN and it will be just fine. right?

 

Week 1 is still on.     We've played one game.     When Tuesday rolls around,  the ESPN rankings will be for week 2.

First off, I like the idea of the Poll. But i'm with NCF on this one. This is week one, next week is week 2.  Anything else will just be confusing.

Guessing you don't know what the FPI is. Like I said, it's CFB.

They've already completed Week 1 games.

For you guys, I'll call it "Post Week 1" confidence poll since it will be asking what your confidence is regarding week 1 performance. How's that.

Did yoiu not see what the graphic shows?

 

"Through week 1".      I'm totally fine with that.    It's correct.

 

That doesn't make "Week 0" correct.     There's no correlation there.

 

Why don't we table this....    doesn't look like you're going to move off your position.   And neither am I.      Call it a draw if you like...

I had always thought of Monday night and Thursday night games to be part of the package of games from the previous Sunday. Said another way, I thought the games from Sunday thorough the following Thursday were part of the same week of games. Also, I'd always considered a weekend with Sat/Sun games to be part of the same week. But after looking at the official schedule for this season at http://www.nfl.com/schedules/2019, I now know each week starts on Thursday and ends the following Monday. I guess I had never looked into it that closely. Lesson learned!
